IC Holiday and Wellness Day Schedule

Ithaca College is excited to provide a comprehensive holiday and wellness day schedule in addition to Paid Time Away accruals. Please see below for the current Holiday and Wellness Day Schedule. 

There are two (2) different types of paid time off for holidays and wellness days:

Holiday Time: The holiday schedule is revised and reissued annually. More specific information regarding Holiday Time can be found in the policy manual.  

Wellness Days: In recognition for the efforts of benefit-eligible staff we have added the Wednesday before Thanksgiving and Summer Restorative Fridays as Wellness Days. Staff will receive paid time off equivalent to the number of regularly scheduled hours for one day of work for the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. And for those benefit-eligible staff working during the summer months, they will receive paid time off equivalent to the number of regularly scheduled hours worked on Fridays over the summer and as outlined each year on the Wellness Day schedule. All non-exempt, benefits eligible, biweekly employees who work on a Wellness Day, will be compensated at their regular rate plus receive supplemental hours to use at a later date. These hours will expire at the end of the calendar year during which the hours were earned. Employees who are on medical leave will not have these hours converted to Wellness Day hours. Temporary and part-time workers, who are not benefit-eligible, are not entitled to the Wellness Day benefit. Student employees who work on a Wellness Day will be paid at their regular rate for hours worked. It is a general rule that official summer hours will begin the Friday after Commencement and end two weeks before the beginning of the Fall academic year. A notification will be sent to the campus each year identifying when summer hours will begin and end.
